Scientific paper

An attempt is made to construct a phenomenological model of sunspots and solar flares on the basis of observed magnetic fields and the observed flows in the photosphere. The model involves the formation of a pair of sunspots from amplification of the weak, large scale fields in the photosphere rather than from emergence of a hypothetical magnetic flux 'tube' from beneath the photosphere. The source of energy for the process is mainly the bulk kinetic energy of the neutral gas.
